SKY'S THE LIMIT FOR TRAVEL- CRAZY CONGRESS!

A BOMBSHELL investigation reveals millionaire members squandering hardworking taxpayers' money on "official” foreign travel junkets, which appear to be vacations in disguise!

An exhaustive National ENQUIRER analysis shows the greedy reps have racked up a whopping $32 million in overseas travel expenses during the last four years, with many of them blowing five-figure amounts on airfare alone!

"It's gross, it's out of touch with what average Americans are concerned about, and it's embarrassing," fumes David Williams, president of the Taxpayers Protection Alliance, a Washington, D.C., government watchdog. "People were suffering from the pandemic and our representatives were still jet setting around the world."

U.S. government records show Republicans and Democrats alike are guilty of sparing no expense as they scoot around the globe on the American taxpayers' dime.

"They're milking taxpayers like dairy cows!” declares another watchdog, Adam Andrzejewski, CEO and founder of OpenTheBooks.com.

In one particularly blatant example, Wyoming's Republican Sen. John Barrasso, who has a net worth estimated at more than $5.6 million, spent $11,488 flying to the Arabian nation of Qatar in late 2020. At the same time, some 11 million Americans were still out of work from the rayages of COVID-19.
